Orbi Traffic meter and Daylight savings
The traffic meter feature in the Orbi only works if you disable daylight savings time. That works but for some reason daylight savings becomes enabled again then the traffic meter stops working again....

So once we go to older version, wouldnt it auto update to newer version?
Why does NG doesnt give any ETA on this. It's an year old issue, do they not care about the customers? They expect customers to perform these workarounds. Who knows what all issues might be there in .210 , so this workaround will just make us dance between one firmware to another.

No router mfr posts information on when fixes or new FW is forth coming. You'll just need to be patient and wait for the fix. Keep in touch with NG support and let them know you'd be interested in testing a beta should one become available.
Good Luck.

Well, you do understand that 1 year wait is a decent time, customers are not expecting an exact date as to when the fix would be provided but atleast sometime line.
I went on to the case details and from last 2 days, this is what i have been getting. Seems like NG is focused more towards launching new product and not working too agressively on fixing an year old complaints.

The recording part of Traffic Meter is working on my RBR50, firmware 2.3.1.44, although "Connection Time" shows zeroz. I do not have limits (so far) on Spectrum and I prefer 24/7 Internet access, so I have not enabled any 'limits'. The numbers appear reasonable, although I have not checked them against Spectrum.
